I mean I probably should have bolded the “DR” part. But I feel like I’m probably right, MS are scum, they’re worse than Facebook and Google. At least the others can maintain the pretence that user data theft is some kind of exchange for free access.

You can’t build a car without paying for the nuts and bolts. We make the nuts and bolts (data), there’s a trillion dollar industry trading our nuts and bolts, and we don’t get paid anything. People say it’s worth pennies per year, but trillions of dollars on 8 billion people mean that peoples’ data is worth somewhere around $1,000 per year.
